Almost every society has certain traditional ideas about marriage. For example，most societies expect men and women to marry. Most cultures also have traditions about the role and duties of a husband and a wife. Traditionally，the husband is expected to earn a living，and the wife is expected to keep house and raise children.
Many Americans did not follow traditional marriage patterns. For example，a large number of married couples share responsibilities that have been traditionally handled by either the husband or the wife. An increasing number of married women have paying jobs and help support their families financially. In 1940s，about 15 percent of all married women earned money. In the early 1990s，about 60 percent held a full-or part-time job. More and more husbands share responsibilities traditionally handled by women，such as cooking，doing housework，and caring for children.
On the average，men and women stay single longer than they once did. In 1950s，men married at an average age of 23，and women married at an average age of 20. By the mid-1990s，the average marriage age was about 26.5 for men and about 24.5 for women.
An increasing number of people choose not to marry. If a man and a woman wish to avoid marriage，they may decide to live together with no formal obligations to each other. This arrangement is more common among young adults，but some couples of all ages live together without marrying. (239 words)

We could start with the advantages of mobile phones. There are many things that we could do with mobile phones. With the advancement of technology，more and more features are being added to the mobile phones which make them more useful. In addition to making calls，mobile phones also support a wide variety of other services such as text messaging，email，Internet access，business applications，gaming and photography. We can bring them everywhere，and can be reached by others anytime. They make the world smaller，bringing people together no matter where they are.
But we could have some risks when using our mobile phones. We may have accidents when we use them while driving. Some studies show that mobile phones can do harm to our bodies;and materials in mobile phones could damage our environment.
Since there are so many risks，why do we still have mobile phones？This is because these risks or disadvantages can be overcome. For example，while we are driving we can easily pull up our car if we really need to use the phone. Mobile phone manufacturers are reducing the radiation of mobile phones to avoid health risks.
Though there are both pros and cons of using mobile phones，we could easily see that there are more advantages than disadvantages. Moreover，mobile phones are becoming cheaper，which might be another reason why mobile phones are increasingly used today.
1. Which of the following functions is NOT mentioned in the passage？
A. Text messaging.
B. Camera.
C. GPS.
2. What risks might mobile phones cause？
A. Traffic accidents and health problems.
B. Environmental damage.
C. Both A and B.
3. What are mobile phone manufacturers doing to prevent mobile phone users from health risks？
A. They are reducing the radiation of mobile phones.
B. They are trying to persuade people to use mobile phones less.
C. They are developing new models of mobile phones.
4. Why do people still use mobile phones despite their disadvantages？
A. Because people don’t believe that mobile phones have any disadvantages.
B. Because the disadvantages of mobile phones can be avoided.
C. Because people cannot live without mobile phones.
5. According to the last paragraph，why are mobile phones increasingly being used today？
A. They are safer.
B. They have more functions.
C. They are becoming cheaper.
Biologists today don’t expect that anyone will find a magical fountain of youth.Growing older is a natural part of the life cycle that can’t be reversed.As human beings grow older, organs such as the heart and lungs may stop functioning properly.Sight and hearing may become weak.And the human body becomes more likely to come down with serious illnesses from which it cannot recover.
Considered together, changes that bring about the decline of an organism are called aging.Because of aging, many biologists believe that there may be a maximum age limit to which even the healthiest organisms can live.For human beings, this maximum age limit is about 110 years.
Perhaps the most important thing that you can learn from your study of human biology is that you have a lot of control over the aging process in your own life.In fact, within our control are many physical and mental factors that have much to do with aging.For example, each of us, as recent research indicates, can do many things to help prevent heart and vessel disease, which causes half the death each year in the United States.We can avoid eating a lot of fatty meat.Eating too much of these types of animal fats can lead to the clogging and hardening of blood vessels.We can cut back on smoking and hopefully quit entirely.We can limit the amount of alcohol we drink and the amount of sugar we eat.We can exercise regularly and strengthen the heart and other organs.And we can remember to take time out each day for ourselves, time just relax.Exercise, recreation and relaxation all reduce stress – inner tension that is hard on all body organs.
One final thing we can do is to try to keep aware of advances made in health education.Information is often available free of charge from health clinics or schools.
1.Which of the following is the leading cause of death in the United States？
A.Heart disease.
B.Cancer
C.Alcohol
D.Smoking
2.What happens as people grow older？
A.They dream of a magic pill to help them live a happy and long life
B.They come down with serious illnesses
C.Their organs become weak and may stop working properly
D.Their blood vessels become clogged
3.In the opinion of biologists, _________.
A.the aging process can be reversed
B.the aging process can be controlled and slowed down
C.the aging process can be got rid of
D.the aging process can go beyond its limit
4.We can slow down the weakening of all our body organs by ______.
A.not eating animal fat
B.limiting drinking and smoking
C.exercise, recreation and relaxation to reduce stress
D.preventing the clogging and hardening of blood vessels
5.Besides physical and mental factors, which of the following also contributes to living a long and healthy life according tot the passage？
A.Health education
B.Traditional medicine
C.artificial organs
D.The invention of magic pills
Homeschooling
Just in last year, more than one million children in the United States chose homeschooling but not traditional school education.This surprising figure was published by the National Center for Education Statistics.Homeschooling is a recent development in education.Not very long ago, it was still considered to be too radical by many education experts.Today, it has been accepted n almost every state.Thousands or even millions of children have tried homeschooling and many more parents are seriously considering it.The interesting thing was what led to such a change.There have been many recent surveys to show that parents are getting impatient and fed up with our public schooling system because it doesn't teach children any practical or real-life skills.
Parents are also concerned about the negative news from schools.For example, some students take drugs in schools, fight with schoolmates and even bring guns and knives to school.Parents are deeply worried about how the behavior. of these students would affect their children's healthy growth.
Homeschooling, on the other hand, allows parents to bring up their children in a natural and loving environment.It is especially important in the early years of the children's development (between three and twelve years old) because this is the period when they are easily affected by negative influences and peer pressure.And during this time most of them cannot tell what is right and what is wrong.Obviously, homeschooling can keep them from some of these bad influences.
Homeschooling has some other benefits, Since parents and children spend more time together, a nice relationship or a stronger bond can be formed between them.This bond can connect with them closer than they have ever thought before.If parents choose homeschooling, they can easily pass their moral values and beliefs on to their children since they stay together longer or maybe they are even the teachers themselves.
So what major factors are stopping parents from adopting homeschooling？ One important thing is that homeschooling costs a lot of time and money.For most families, both parents have to work full-time to support the family.Many homeschooling families depend on one parent for the income, while the other parent has to spend all the time on teaching the child.Therefore in some cases, it is not possible to adopt homeschooling if the family doesn't have stable income.
To help and guide homeschooling families, more and more homeschooling support groups are appearing in the neighborhood.Some have even gone online.If parents do decide to choose homeschooling, they can always get advice from a homeschooling support group.
